Pupe and Aof were very helpful and fast in their replies! In our preparations for Bangkok, they made sure that we knew what to expect and were instantly available to reply to us whenever we needed to.
Baan Yok is close to what was described and depicted in the listing. It is indeed a very old house with its own charms, and it's located close to the heart of Yaowarat/Chinatown.
As explained in the listing, the two rooms listed have particular specifications. Firstly, they are not identical, in that one is larger than the other. Secondly, both of them have their own showers, while there is a shared bathroom with a toilet and sink outside it. While these amenities were sufficient, future travelers would benefit from more detailed descriptions for more accurate expectations to be set. For instance, the furnishings in the smaller room are very different from the larger one. The larger room has its own coffee table and seating area and a makeshift clothes rack constructed from a pipe. The smaller room's bed mattress was also very hard. While these details may be considered peripheral, it will be helpful for future travelers to know about them beforehand to make informed decisions about how to decide on which room to stay in. Another small note for improvement is in including hand soap in the shared sink.
Nevertheless, the hospitality and warmth that Pupe and Aof displayed made our stay worthwhile, and it was thanks to this hospitality that we could enjoy our holiday in Bangkok. With the suggestions made, we're sure that future travelers will have stay they can consider to be beyond perfect.
